You are so right, TN does have more reds. I noticed that too. Being a Yankee from the NE, it takes me awhile to appreciate all the gold/orangy/yellows with only touches of reds here and there. We so love the mountains of NC and TN. Your photos are so great! I have not even started back to blogging until Monday. Just hopping around visiting friends.
